| Thanks Annie!
You are always so upbeat and positive. I really appreciate it. I am not coping so well I don't think...And I think I am about to leave my marriage again ..so that is not helping things..But this too shall pass..
I feel attractive with my clothes on..but as soon as I look in the mirror I think my chances of dating again looking like this are slim to nil..Not sure how I am going to get over that part yet...

You look amazing and if a real man loves you it will be because of you and who you are not what he see's under the clothes 
The divorce makes me kinda sad my husband reaserched it and the divorce rate after WLS is so high it is a concern for him wish I could ease his mind.

Ok Here goes my say on this...Your depressed, I dont think leaving your husband is a good idea, he was with you thru your bad times, if i recall even a pic of you in a wheel chair...I think you really need to go for counsiling, perhaps bring him along to some also to see if whats wrong can be worked on together...When you have major life changes in your life, and yes WLS is a major life change, it is not a good time to make irrational changes..now if he is abusive is one thing but if your depressed and just cant get passed things then dont make those kind of choices right now...As for attractive, yes you are, but ask yourself this, would a man found you attractive like you are now in the past when you were not in good health...I think your husband did, the looks in the pics you both look so happy...Now do something to help yourself once again and this time get to a dr for depression, for therpay or what ever you need, your just driving yourself insane worrying all the time hun....promise you can do this for yourself, okayAnnie~

I agree with Annie on this one. Since you seem to be struggling with some depression and some self esteem issues... unless your husband is abusive, I think it'd be best to slow down on the idea of divorce or separation. I think individual counseling, as well as couples therapy is probably a great idea.
You LOOK FABULOUS. Honey, I can assure you... If I spend any length of time NAKED infront of a mirror, I'm not pleased. But you have to learn to love yourself. Don't pick yourself apart. You and I are alot alike in that way. I tend to do the same thing. But a man who loves you will love you for YOU... not for what you see when the clothes come off. At 376 pounds I had my fair share of offers... and there were no delusions that there was a Halle Berry hiding under those clothes!!
Hang in there.... find a way to love your body for what it is. Not for what you think it SHOULD be.
